The beta released with this commit (modules-beta.6) included everything on
the release-1.3 branch up to bdf64da339
("Avoid circular package.json resolution chains.").
Unfortunately, additional commits were pushed to the branch before this
commit was pushed, so the release tag release/METEOR@1.3-modules-beta.6
does not correspond to any commit in the branch history.
Rather than attempting to rewrite the branch history, I decided to amend
this commit with this explanation before pushing it.
To see exactly what was released with the sixth beta:
git fetch --tags
git log release/METEOR@1.3-modules-beta.6
webapp
The webapp package contains the core functionality that makes a
Meteor project into a web application. It is a "value added HTTP
server" that includes not just a web server, but also advanced app
serving functionality like over-the-air mobile app updates and HTML5
Appcache support. For more information, see the Webapp project
page.
Direct access to connect mongodb API
The webapp package is implemented using the
npm connect module. webapp exposes
the connect API for handling requests through Webapp.connectHandlers. See
https://docs.meteor.com/#/full/webapp for more details
If you'd like direct access to the connect module (for example, to use one of
the middleware handlers that it defines), you can find it at
WebAppInternals.NpmModules.connect.module. Its version can be read at
WebAppInternals.NpmModules.connect.version.
The version of connect used may change incompatibly from version to version of
Meteor (or we may even replace it with an entirely different implementation);
use at your own risk.
